Performance Plus for Higher Education
The Performance Plus add-on for the Brightspace LMS delivers powerful learning analytics tools to help administrators, educators, and learners save quality time while maximising impact and driving success. With our LMS, you can deliver better outcomes for your students through data driven learning experiences.
Learning analytics data that makes sense
With Performance Plus, you can quickly get answers to the questions that are most important to your institution with the advanced analytics dashboards found in the LMS. With up-to-date information, there is no more waiting for custom reports, no reliance on external tools, and no manual management of roles and permissions.
- The Adoption Dashboard helps educational administrators clearly see how Brightspace is being used so they can amplify successes and determine where to invest.
- The Engagement Dashboard helps educational advisors identify at-risk and succeeding groups and individuals in order to take appropriate action.
- The Assessment Quality Dashboard helps educators and instructional designers quickly evaluate the effectiveness of quizzes and quiz questions.
Personalised learning paths
The adaptive learning engine within the system creates a scalable, personalised experience to help each student succeed in his or her own way.
- The semantic engine automatically links concepts to content. It develops an active understanding of each student’s progress against learning objectives and of where they need extra help.
- Instructors can use the learning objectives, content, and questions they’ve already created for a course to set unique learning paths for each student.
- Course content and assessments are automatically tailored to each individual, helping deliver a personalised experience regardless of class size.
Better outcomes for at-risk students
Predictive learning analytics and visual diagnostics can help instructors identify at-risk students in a course and take action to help them improve.
- Intuitive dashboards transform complex learner data into easily identified patterns of student engagement and academic risk.
- Integrated workflows help instructors quickly take prescriptive action for at-risk and disengaged students.
- With a better understanding of what’s working and what isn’t, instructors can improve and optimise their course content and delivery over time.
LeaP is not a teaching tool, it’s a learning tool. It empowers students to work on their knowledge and skills independently, which in turn frees the instructors to focus on teaching new skills rather than covering old ground.
As a teacher, it’s not the scores that matter— it’s the engagement we’re seeing from the students. They see a clear connection between using LeaP and gaining confidence in their learning, so adoption has been high.
With data drawn from Brightspace, we can intervene with an at-risk student even before they're aware they're at risk.
The insights portal that Brightspace offers is incredible — and data is something we want to be more thoughtful of and make sure that we are making decisions that are appropriate for our students based on data.

The analytics capabilities of Brightspace are extremely beneficial to teachers. They give teachers the ability to look at data on students’ assignments and quiz scores that help them reflect on how well they are getting through to our students. That’s what truly makes Brightspace powerful, and we’ve seen big changes in the way we teach as a result.
